Jacob, thx for the comments and compliments (I think!). Bear in mind that this is a capitalist economy. It needs regulation to work but socialism’s track record across history is dismal.

Thank you for the three different perceptions. I agree with most of them. The vast majority of the country--the silent workers who do their job and take care of their families--want government to sit the f*ck down and do their job. Their job is not seeing who can be the loudest, brazenly idiotic representative, but to actually represent their district--regardless of party--and get the country running.

The Democrats are waiting patiently for the GQP children to realize there will be no invite to return if they don't show they can do the job. I think if there are no big catastrophic events, that Democrats will mop the floor with the GQP. Not because anyone necessarily loves Democrats, but we have to get rid of the trash. Hopefully the conservatives will put together a policy platform and run serious candidates who have education and experience in governing.

Or maybe we should go to Ranked Choice Voting. I haven't seen a serious downside to that form of democratic voting.
